How do I prepare the surface before applying a sealant?

Drive - Preparation before applying sealant

Before applying sealant on your brick paved drive, make sure you cover vegetation within a metre of the driveway. Clean the surface with a cleaning agent and use a power washer to take the sand between bricks below the bevelled edge. Allow to dry completely for approx. 24 hours. Once dry, brush sand into the joints, taking sand up to bevelled edge, then blow off excess sand.
